Afternoon Break

Reflection exercise

Over break, reflect on and discuss the following:

• A common refrain in software engineering is “Don’t Repeat Yourself”. How do the techniques we’ve learned in the last lessons help us avoid repeating ourselves? Note that in practice there is some nuance to this and should be balanced with doing the simplest thing that could possibly work.
• How do you think the techniques we’ve learned in the last lessons could be applied to your own work?
